Chauderon,
Perhaps I've misunderstood your statement, but the OP will need 1,500 hours total time to fly for any Part 121 carrier, like Breeze or any regional, unless he has access to some college program offering a restricted ATP at 1,000 or 1,250 hours. But as you say, instructing is a good way to get the 1,500 hours.
